For a description of how to use the CLI, see "Using the Command Line Interface" on page 4-1. For a
list of all the CLI commands and detailed information on using the CLI, refer to "Command Groups"
on page 5-1.

Logging In

Enter "admin" for the user name. Type the default password "admin" and press [Enter] at the
password prompt. The CLI prompt appears as shown below.
Username: admin
Password:
Foundry AP#

Setting the IP Address

The access point has a default IP address of 169.254.1.1, which may not be compatible with your
network. You will therefore have to use the CLI to assign a compatible IP address or configure the
access point to obtain its IP settings from a DHCP server.
Type "configure" to enter configuration mode, then type "interface ethernet" to access the Ethernet
interface-configuration mode.
Foundry AP#configure
Foundry AP(config)#interface ethernet
Foundry AP(config-if)#
Type "ip address ip-address netmask gateway," where "ip-address" is the access point's IP address,
"netmask" is the network mask for the network, and "gateway" is the default gateway router. Check
with your system administrator to obtain an IP address that is compatible with your network.
Foundry AP(if-ethernet)#ip address 192.168.2.2 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.254
Foundry AP(if-ethernet)#
Alternatively, to configure the access point to obtain its IP settings from a DHCP server, type "ip
dhcp."
Foundry AP(if-ethernet)#ip dhcp
Foundry AP(if-ethernet)#
After configuring the access point's IP parameters, you can access the management interface from
anywhere within the attached network. The command line interface can also be accessed using
Telnet from any computer attached to the network.

Setting the Country Code

If your access point is configured by default without a country code (that is, set to "99"). You must use
the CLI to set the country code. Setting the country code restricts operation of the access point to
the radio channels permitted for wireless networks in the specified country.
